My friend Kristen and I went strawberry pickin. It was one of our strangely cold spring days. Emma was unsure at first but then loved eating the strawberries. We had fun watching her shove them in her mouth as fast as she could....

On May 13th, Kai Phipps was born. He is the son of our good friends Greg and Angie. We were all, especially Angie, very excited for him to pop into the world. Emma now has a friend that lives right down the street!

I had a conference for work in Myrtle Beach so we spent a few days at my conference then headed down to Charleston for a night. Here is Emma at the South Carolina beach....She was very girly about the sand...didn't like to touch it and just kind of poked it with her finger...

Emma during her first swim....she loved it. I think she is going to be quite the water baby...Fountain in CharlestonEating breakfast at a restaurant in an old home in Charleston..we were able to eat on the front porch...the weather was perfect..

One of Emma's favorite things to do is to look out her crib bars and play peek a boo.....

Can you believe that she can already read?? Amazing...Look at me, I can stand one handed!"We represent, the lollipop kids, the lollipop kids, the lollipop kids, and in the name of the lollipop kids, we want to welcome you to munchkin land........"Ready for bath time....She prefers to ride in her backback rather than her stroller but mom prefers the stroller...."Grease lightning....go Grease lightning..."Hmmmmm....can I eat it???This is her new smily face.....she squishes up her nose and clicks her teeth together.....very cute :)

At the end of March, John's Aunt Marcy came to visit us. We had a wonderful time and even took Emma to the zoo. See the giraffe in the background??? Emma loved her Aunt Marcy and we loved having her as she was an excellent baby rocker...

I have a couple of pictures that I was trying to post but can't get it to work. I will add later.
